If you loved the classic Advance Wars and other more modern turn-based tactical battlers, you're probably going to love Warside. Currently in development by UK (London) based LAVABIRD, it's looking extremely promising.
Not only will it have a full single-player mode with more than thirty missions, it will also have local and online co-op missions. Plus the ability to take on friends and foes alike in local and online PvP.
Check out the new trailer below:

Nice to see Steam Deck noted directly in a trailer too, pretty cool, we don't see that often! They did previously confirm on their successful Kickstarter it would have Linux support so it's not surprising. It's also made with the free and open source Godot Engine which is great.
Features:
- Intuitive turn-based gameplay with a familiar feel for fans of the classics.
- 12 playable Commanders, each with unique passive skills and Battle Powers.
- Control 25+ unit types. Simultaneously battle over land, air, and sea with ground forces, aircraft, and naval units.
- Faction unique units with mechanics specific to each faction.
- Single-player campaign with over 30 missions.
- Forest, desert and snow biomes, plus the toxic wastelands.
- Challenge friends and foes with multiplayer battles. Local and jnternet play are supported.
- Design your own maps with the built-in mission editor for both single and multiplayer.
